'06 Impala SS

[Guest zolar]

I had a new one today. The '06 Chevy Impala SS.

It was a big pain in the arse!

It has the fine matrix like the Malibus did.

The 3 fixed headrests make you climb in the deep, fuzzy back deck

It has rubber/silicone gaskets that placed way inside of the edge.

I can see me pulling panels, and gaskets on the next one.

Price 'em at about $900, and you should be O.K.

Anyone got some tricks on this one?

Mods, Please move this to makes and models in a little bit.

did you try and pull the rubber gaskets out from around the window? I have pulled them out on the new grand prix and from that pic they sorta look the same

[Mdog]

was there much room at the bottom deck or is the carpet slammed right up against the backglass?

[Guest zolar]

The carpet is high, right on the glass, but you can still get a side swiper or black & white in there.

The gaskets need to come out, I am pulling the next ones.

The chevy dealership sent me up to 2 Impalas a week last year

I hope this dosen't get to be a popular ride to tint.

and the little round snap connector is still on the back glass

and now there is one in the visor too, with another fine matrix in front.

This car dosen't want to be tinted.

I did a few I did manage to remove the gasket around the door like nothing,

its a new car you just have to get used to knowing where everything is.....

I tried doing the windows without removing the door panels and well, I dont recommend

it just remove them

[Guest zolar]

Oh yeah, the trim beside the roll-ups is plastic

It is covered with a thin film

It will melt before the film gets hot enough

to push out any fine creases the gaskets create.

I usually singe the carpet with a heat gun that is right up against the glass, think that would knock it down enough just so no little fuzzies find their way into the tint papa.

Looks like an even bigger, uglier Malibu No wonder Chevy is in trouble. Their cars look like hammered ass.

I agree, they susk especially the new 2 dr cobalt. talk about a gay ass car to tint they all suck.
